Books - If I Stay by Gayle Forman

Rate the book: 6

17 year-old Mia's life is changed forever when a terrible car accident faces her with a difficult choice: to stay or go. The ideas behind this heart-wrenching story are original and inspired. However, this novel felt more like 196 pages of pure sadness which took away from the book.

This is an extremely well written story but one I would not recommend to the faint-hearted.

If you decide to follow Mia on this moving journey, make sure you've got tissues at hand.
